Autistic, Allo, Bi, Feminist, Irish, Queer, and over 25. Trying to be a good ally to various folks. Anti-TERF, anti-REG. Also a pretty big gamer who takes far, far too many screenshots and rarely posts any because lazy. My drafts have 250+ reblogs in there at any one time, so if I reblog an ancient post from you, it's basically just me clearing them out.
tumblr outside of palaeoblr doesn’t really understand that paleontology is an actual scientific field of study and not, like, a fandom that makes up rules about monsters.
If you want your field to have more respect, stop making monsters less interesting.
I preferred T-Rexes before the retcon. Feathers are rubbish, stop doing that!
Human pet guy thinks you can retcon real animals
cybersmith disagreeing with me is a better argument for my position than anything i could ever say
Right now, and for a “limited time,” anyone in the United States between the age of 13 and 21 can apply for a free Brooklyn Public Library eCard, which gives access to 350,000 eBooks, 200,000 audiobooks, and online databases. (Normally, Brooklyn Public Library eCards are only free for people who live and/or work in New York state.)
All the talk about “oh Elon Musk’s buying twitter now all the people who fled from tumblr to twitter are gonna come back here” and gotta say. I’m on edge. SOMETHING happened to tumblr between 2018 and 2020 that turned it from a warzone to a tolerable shitposting website and my one best guess has always been that the p/orn ban sent so many people packing to twitter that we ended up exporting all our native-grown gremlins to the bird site. I back this theory up by the fact that all batshit fandom drama I hear about these days comes from twitter.
So for most people coming back, happy to see you welcome have some tea or coffee over on the table to the left but if the shit-stirrers come back for me it’s on sight. It’s on sight. First time around I was nice I was like “oh I shouldn’t engage if I’m the Bigger Blog that’s a bad move to put smaller blogs on blast :(” free pass is up. I’ll name and shame. I clawed my way back up from 6 feet underground and I’m not doing it again I’ll defend this garbage tower to the death. PVP. I’ll salt the earth I’ll poison the water supply I’ll burn the village down hand in unlovable hand I’ll take everyone and everything down with me before I cede this stupid blog again it’s on. sight.
still thinking about this like what do you do if your eyelashes just start falling out on their own as they, yknow, do sometimes? was this something ancient roman women worried about? like god i need to stop losing eyelashes or else pliny’s gonna show up at my house and call me a whore
everyone knows about Human Pet Guy but i feel like only the real tumblr OGs remember Train Fucker Guy. the dude who would show up on literally every post even tangentially related to social justice issues being all internet tough guy like “unlike you sjws I’m not so easily triggered, there’s only two genders and white privilege isn’t real, lol u mad” and then you went on his blog and all his other posts were about him being very openly, proudly sexually attracted to trains. I dont remember his url because he would change it every two days but you always knew it was him, his icon was usually some ms paint anthropomorphic train girl with huge tits. everyone would immediately just be like “heyyy it’s Train Fucker” every time he popped up just like they do with Human Pet Guy
